[@catguy64]

Pan, I'm a newbie who came across your channel & love it because you are, simply relatable. Concerning leather, namely this video but for leather seats too, how can you "seal" leather when it's plastic coated? If you can explain or provide a link that would help.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

After reading my viewers' questions, I decided to ask their questions to Colourlock experts and received the following answers: 1) Is there a wait time after using the leather cleaner before applying leather shield? No. There is no waiting time. Just ensure the surface is dry and all cleaner residue is removed/wiped before applying Shield. 2) How often do we need to reapply Leather Shield? Leather Shield is a sealant. A non permanent sealant that needs to be refreshed once every 3-6 months depending on use. It provides protection from abrasion damage and dye transfer on new leather. 3) Are the products in this video suitable for fake/synthetic leather? Yes, the product is suitable for genuine leather (non absorbent only) & all types of artificial leather/leatherette.

[@krflyguy2117]

Please tell ColourLock to send product to Amazon. The new car kit is not available. Thank you!!

Thanks for showing us how to do it right! There are several other videos suggesting the use of a magic eraser, which is only going to damage the leather. These is no substitution for having the proper 'tools', in this case, a cleaner designed for steering wheels

Thanks Dayne! Magic erasers can be used in extreme conditions, when no other solution works, but you need to be very careful and test on an inconspicuous area first. But in general, I always recommend starting with the most gentle methods first, and use material appropriate products, like leather cleaners and sealants on leather surfaces. :)

Cleaning the brush is simple, just rinse it in warm water and let it air dry. If you get some super disgusting leather cleaning, you can spray a bit of APC on the brush, work it in, then rinse with warm water.

A Magic Eraser is my weapon of choice for the steering wheel deep clean. The amount of crud it removes is unbelievable, even after using a degreaser etc. Brought a 10 year old disgusting steering wheel back to looking new again.

[@bhongtastic]

Luke Wilson ditto. it’s what i use on my cars too!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Be very careful when using magic erasers and APCs or degreasers on leather surfaces. Magic erasers are abrasives and if used to hard or too often can damage the protective coating that's on the leather. APCs and degreasers are often too alkaline (high pH) and can change the leather's pH which can harm it long term. For regular maintenance, the lowest aggression should be used: the techniques shown in this video.

[@bhongtastic]

Pan TheOrganizer Very good to know. How does Colourlock Shield compare to something like Beasley’s Leather Lock?

[@Thisguy420]

@@PanTheOrganizerOh yeah, of course. I'd only use the Magic Eraser on heavily soiled steering wheels and certainly not for routine maintenance. It works so well to cut through years worth of gunk from hands. Like any abrasive, it should only be used if absolutely necessary. Cheers, Pan!

Watched and learned👏 Keep it tight and clean. If the steering wheel has been protected, do I still need to use dedicated cleaner to fully clean it every 2-3 months or just use some inner cleaner?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

You would repeat this exact procedure every 3 months.

[@louislou8233]

I got it😄

[@kykypenn]

What would you did if it’s worn or faded, is there away to fix that?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yes, there are ways to restore leather. But I don't do that. There are videos by companies like Colourlock that show you how.

[@KenseisGarage]

Awesome tutorial Pan, top notch video man, keep up the great work, 👍👌

Thanks dude! Have a great weekend!

[@edoardopassera]

Hey Pan, for a very old leather steering wheel (40 years old) that are a bit sticky, how would you clean it? Thanks.

[@Skilver-vg8oe]

Just my thoughts (I have a 69 corvette) use an apc/leather cleaner but on a microfiber

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Always try with the least aggressive method first, like in this video. If that isn't enough, you can try a mild all purpose cleaner and if that still doesn't work, a degreaser with a magic eraser, but don't do this too often as you could damage the leather's coating.

[@norabody]

Could you tell us what product to use to maintain daily sanitizing on the wheel?

[@jonathansquires3114]

@@PanTheOrganizer Been following you for a few years now! Looked for advice on maintaining my Expel PPF and saw your comparisons and long term tests. As a result last year we promoted 303 Graphene spray (you premiered it with an interview of the 303 chemist) on our RV network. We used it on our Airtstream trailer - as well on my RS5, Q8 and Lexus. You do great work. Thank you!

Excellent video Pan. Thoughts on leatherique or is this better??

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I haven't tried Leatherique yet.

[@norseguy89]

Good video for me. I usually spray griots 3 in 1 leather conditioner and cleaner on a microfiber and massage it in my steering wheel. Same process for my leather seats. I'm assuming this steering wheel cleaning process will be the same for seats? Also I have a spot that is starting to feel coarse on the top of my steering wheel hopefully cleaning will not make it worse.

[@amcro2782]

Nice video. I searched the entire internet for a tutorial like this. Those same products can be used in the rest of the car that has the same material of the steering wheel?

LOL thanks!

[@shanepayet2677]

Hey Pan, Great video keep the interior videos coming. I wanted to know what protectant and UVA & UVB/conditioner after cleaning the leather but particularly the dashboard. I have a 2020 Golf R, what do you apply to your BMW dashboard after cleaning with P&S interior cleaner? Thanks

[@PanTheOrganizer]

CarPro PERL diluted 5:1 for interior plastics

[@SurfaceToAir_]

hey pan, how do you deal with cleaning sticky dash and buttons? thanks!

[@gabea.458]

The reason the Colourlock brush is ideal is because the bristles are synthetic and don't heat up the surface like a brush made of hair would.

[@FastColin]

Great video Pan! I do wonder, since not all leathers are the same (some cars have artificial, some PU, some Suede etc.), how do I get to know what type of leather my vehicle has? I see on the website of Colourlock that the Strong Leather Cleaner can not be used on every type of leather. Thanks in advance!

[@vnik872]

Hi Paaaaan! Thanks for all the videos and product suggestions! I tried the mild one - its really good. But after a few days my s wheel becomes sticky again? Would you suggest anything? Or should i try the strong cleaner instead?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Did you protect it after cleaning it?

[@vnik872]

​@@PanTheOrganizer yes, of course! Did everything as you instructed in the video. I will try the other Colourlock set. Taking this opportunity to thank you for the videos and product recommendations! My gf hates me, coz I am with my 440 every weekend hahaha

Awesome video! Can I also use this product for the car seats? Thnx in advance.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yes you can.

[@makischilakis]

Again a great video Pandelis and it is really helpful....only a question how much product from colourlock you need for all the interior of the car? I would like to do the interior of a friends car.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

One kit is more than enough.

[@scottn7464]

Go to Walmart and get a Kiwi brand shoe polish brush. They are horse hair and made for leather. At least half the cost of these detailing brushes and are the same thing

[@DJRanoia]

Yea and the chemical guys brush I bought is falling apart always losing bristles.

[@michaelhuynh4093]

Great video! Would you recommend the Strong or Mild cleaner? I have less 1yr and 4yr Merc, can I use 1 New Kit for both cars?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Always start with the mild cleaner first. One new kit is enough for many cars.

[@ABAUTOAMG]

Great as always! Thanks Pan :)

Hey Pan great vid. How do I replace the clear coat (Mitsubishi L200). It has rubbed off in places due to some wear and tear. Mostly abrasive sand from a camping trip.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I simply rinse the brush in warm water and let it dry.

[@ayske1]

Used leather cleaner for my sofa. Saved $20!!

[@13_Kas]

Does the colourblock get the ingrained dirt?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

That depends on how bad the dirt or staining is. Use the Colourlock Strong leather cleaner with the leather brush (links in the description) and multiple applications might be needed. The next step up from there, if there's still dirt, would be to use a diluted all purpose cleaner and steam cleaner (head wrapped with microfiber towel) to get deeper in the pores.

Mild for leather that’s not too dirty. Strong for dirty leather that has a lot of grease on it (very shiny looking).
